“It’s about winning,” Stoudemire said. “You win, you’re going to get on national TV. Simple. In Phoenix, we won — Western Conference finals three, four years, playoffs every year. We won. If you don’t win, nobody really wants to see you.”

I think if he buys in. Yes. Luka was torching Washington, and Beal turned up the heat late. Although he did get kicked out of the game, but that shows fire and he cares when his team is getting punked.

His value might be taking pressure off of Siakim and others in the clutch, you need shot creators sometimes when things get icky. Same things for playoffs.

I personally would like to see Buddy Hield as an option. Masai would have to pay but he seems like a nice fit with FVV-OG-Siakiam

I'm fairly certain OG or Fred would have to be part of the return. Who would you offer?

With no Kawhi Leonard and a handful of key veterans entering the final year of their respective contracts, the Raptors entered the 2019-20 season as potential sellers.

However, they might be just as good as last year's championship-winning group.

If they have a legitimate shot at defending their crown, why not make an aggressive move to assist that effort? Buying big on Andre Iguodala—while other contenders wait for a buyout agreement that may never come—could make this long, versatile, intelligent group even longer, more versatile and more intelligent. They couldn't make this move before Dec. 15, so they should have a clearer view of their ceiling by then.

The Raptors already have the league's ninth-best defense without Iguodala, but his razor-sharp instincts could give them serious growth potential. Slotting him alongside Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby might be the creation of the proverbial immovable object, especially in this increasingly positionless game.

Honestly I just don’t know if he makes us better.
It’s entirely possible he wouldn’t even see the floor.

His best years are behind him and i'm sure not playing right now doesn't do him any good. I don't know either, to be honest.
